Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1041

Chapter 1041: Chapter 914: Midnight Operation

In the late-night city west’s courtyard house, a shadow swiftly darted over the wall, stealthily entering the yard. Not long after, he returned and opened a small door.

Hidden in the shadows, Zhou Jiao waved her hand, gestured, and immediately emerged, following him quickly inside, closing the door behind them.

"Keep your voice down, it’s fine. I’ve dealt with everyone in the house tonight; they won’t wake up until noon tomorrow," Zhang Guoqing said as he supported her, pointing out who was in each bedroom.

In less than ten minutes, the couple was surreptitiously entering one of tonight’s targets, the bedroom of a newly appointed director.

Inside, the couple lying on the kang were sedated, unconscious like dead pigs.

Zhou Jiao suddenly recalled how the man had tormented innocent people on stage, and in a fit of anger, she kicked him hard twice, then used a prepared brush to draw a big X on his forehead.

Zhang Guoqing laughed, patiently waited for her to finish having fun, then reminded her they still had work to do tonight. According to their plan, they had quite a bit to accomplish.

Indeed, Zhou Jiao gestured towards the bedroom, indicating he should look for evidence and stolen goods while she checked other rooms. They wouldn’t take lives but didn’t plan to let them off easily either.

Besides making these sinful people lose money, the more important thing was to gather evidence that would make them anxious and apprehensive, preventing them from harshly targeting innocent individuals.

"Why not poison these scoundrels to death? Haha, these small fries are like weeds, quickly replaced after one batch, better not to dirty their hands," Zhang Guoqing shook his head uneasily and began rummaging through the boxes alongside her.

They didn’t have that spiritual power scanning described in novels, but their speed wasn’t slow. After all, there were only a few rooms in the courtyard.

Before coming, Zhang Guoqing had already investigated thoroughly.

This courtyard used to belong to someone else. The man here wasn’t even a minor character, unheard of until last year when he was the first to participate in activities. With radical views and some greed, he took over an old professor’s home and acted like a tyrant in this area, while pretending to speak for revolutions and the people.

Aside from the couple in the master bedroom, the adjacent east room belonged to the domineering mother-in-law. Coincidentally, this mother-in-law was quite the character too, one foot in the grave, yet still keen on cheering and shouting behind her son-in-law.

The two empty rooms on the right belonged to the two married sons, but since their father gained power, the younger ones also flaunted power at the workplace and occupied the dormitory buildings.

As for the unmarried youngest son and daughter, they were even worse. The little brats reported their school principal, and with their like-minded sisters, spent days causing trouble, teasing pretty girls or gathering to drink and cause a ruckus.

Though not home tonight, otherwise... haha...

After searching thoroughly, they hadn’t expected how well-off this family was. Duh, if they weren’t, would this couple come knocking?

Aside from a cloth bag with quite a bit of money and tickets found squeezed between the couple’s kang board, Zhang Guoqing didn’t count carefully, but based on the thickness and face value, it must have amounted to four or five thousand.

Zhou Jiao, being meticulous, finally found a hidden compartment at the kang’s foot after flipping through quilts, pillows, and kang mats.

Did this person lack education?

The box was filled with gold jewelry, jade pendants, jade items, and a notebook with crooked writing, but no antique paintings or calligraphy.
